Encode Toolkit vs Tebra

encode_search_experiments

Search ENCODE experiments with comprehensive filters. Examples: - Find all Histone ChIP-seq on human pancreas tissue: assay_title="Histone ChIP-seq", organ="pancreas", biosample_type="tissue" - Find ATAC-seq on human brain: assay_title="ATAC-seq", organ="brain" - Find RNA-seq on GM12878 cell line: assay_title="total RNA-seq", biosample_term_name="GM12878" - Find ChIP-seq targeting H3K27me3: assay_title="Histone ChIP-seq", target="H3K27me3" - Find all mouse liver experiments: organism="Mus musculus", organ="liver" - Free text search: search_term="CRISPR screen pancreatic" Common assay_title values: "Histone ChIP-seq", "TF ChIP-seq", "ATAC-seq", "DNase-seq", "total RNA-seq", "polyA plus RNA-seq", "WGBS", "intact Hi-C", "CUT&RUN", "CUT&Tag", "STARR-seq", "MPRA", "eCLIP", "CRISPR screen" Common organ values: "pancreas", "liver", "brain", "heart", "kidney", "lung", "intestine", "skin of body", "blood", "spleen", "thymus" biosample_type values: "tissue", "cell line", "primary cell", "in vitro differentiated cells", "organoid" WHEN TO USE: Use as the primary entry point when users want to find experiments. Start with encode_get_facets if unsure what filters to use.
